literally stacked it's 240 gr. bullets. I truly regretted ever shooting it. Still I blocked it in my head and proceeded with the build. Nate did a fantastic job on the grips using a scrap of fine English Walnut. Gary had the frame reliefs done to suit me in the style of the old Colt Thunderer and Lightning .41/.38 DA. I think the unusual combination of stainless frame and soft matte blue really set if apart in style.
I didn't have one like that so it holds a special collecting place for me.

and that is a fairly light load. The 44 mag will add 300 fps
